A former steelworks, this vast 3/4 of a mile long building, looms across the South Yorkshire landscape like a science fiction version of Table Mountain.

NASS Festival is very different to the normal music festival, as not only is it host to some great artist, but also the BMX and Skateboarding Championships.

RAMzine will be attending extreme sports and music festival NASS, as we can’t miss out on any snippets of slight Rock music!
